Janeway's Immunobiology, 8th Edition
You can download Janeway's Immunobiology, 8th Edition from with Mediafire Link Download Link Janeway's Immunobiology is a textbook that introduces the immune system in all its aspects to undergraduates, and also provides a treatment of the subject that is comprehensive enough to be useful to graduate students interested in research, and to medical students focused on clinical applications. The Eighth Edition has been thoroughly revised and updated. Janeway's Immunobiology continues to set the standard for currency and authority with its clear writing style and organization, uniform art program, and scientific accuracy. It presents a consistent point of view throughout—that of the host's interaction with an environment containing many species of potentially harmful microorganisms. The full-color art program is conceptually coherent and illustrates the processes and mechanisms underlying the concepts in the text. The 16 chapters in this readable, accessible textbook are organized and presented in such a way as to help deliver a complete one-semester immunology course, beginning with innate immunity, then moving to adaptive immunity, and ending with applied clinical immunology.

I was heavily reliant on this book for an immunology course I took as an elective, and while I am impressed by the amount of research and effort that went into this textbook, I wasn't impressed by the presentation of the content. Sure, this book is very detailed, and its scientific journal-like diction helped me a lot when it came down to reading scientific literature, but the material was written in a very convoluted way. It seemed like this was meant for a group of students who were already versed in the topic of immunology,somewhat, and not for people who like me were new to the subject. In some chapters the book would begin talking about one system, move on another system and then loop back around to the first system. Chapter divisions were really nice and so were the summaries because it is very hard to skim over this text to review or look for pertinent information. Some information that took 3 pages to explain were was already evident in a preceding diagram, and could have been summarized onto a single page. I definitely learned a lot from reading the book and the illustrations were great, but I felt that getting through a 50 page chapter took a lot of caffeine and will power- that stuff is dense!By couchpotato
There are already many comments on the content, but I wanted to speak to the format of the Kindle Version. First and foremost, the Kindle version is a "print" format which means it will not work on the black-and-white Kindles -- not even the new Kindle Paperwhite. It needs to render images so only the Kindle Fire series, PCs, MACs, and iPad are supported. I don't know why the Android systems are not supported -- it might be a licensing thing.By Elgy
Even though this textbook is in "print" format, you will still be able to interact with the text -- highlight words, phrases or sentences; use the dictionary; and even add bubble notes.
Zoomed all the way out, the Kindle version looks exactly like the print version. The added features are more like PDF files -- you can do a search, copy text and paste from it, highlight, and as already mentioned, add notes (in a bubble style like in Adobe).
I bought the physical printed version and the Kindle version at the same time...after a few days pondering the pros/cons of print versus ebook, I returned the printed version, and committed to the Kindle version. Since I'm an Android tablet user, I'm tied to my home computer or laptop when I want to read, but this is no major inconvenience.
I have four graduate level classes this semester, and no physical textbooks. This is the lightest my backpack has ever been.
